Are you interested in doing it for work or just to be ass? If authenticly interested I might be willing to spoon feed this to you,but not if its a pissing contest.

As for "not able to find work in the civilian sector" thats arguably the majority of the military from E-1 up. Once in many gain skills that could let them find civilian work but choose to stay, but most at least to start don't have much to go with(officers degree, enlisted normally less)

as to the not letting you quit that true anytime you sign a number of years contract. Civilian contractors see it the most, but in theory it applies to all jobs. Civilians more likely to get sued, military go to jail.

Okay so it's not quite like the military. I thought you were saying that there were comparable situations.

That IRS position still looks like it requires an application process that's competitive. Doesn't really look like it's a last-resort job.

Coast Guard civilian job openings are listed by the Coast Guard Civilian Personnel Office.Coast Guard Civilian legal positions include Lawyers and Paralegals. Typically these job openings will be listed under the following series codes:

Series Description 0905 General Attorney

0950 Paralegal Specialist

Using the above series codes to search the USCG's civilian job openings is a fast way to locate new civilian CG Legal job openings

Fair enough. A lawyer who's in one of these areas probably has a better chance of getting back into a full-time lawyer position than someone who is, as you said earlier, just delivering pizza. That having been said, they're probably still less competitive than the folks who have been working full-time as lawyers without a break, don't you think? (I am talking about the ones taking legal-related but not lawyer positions, so not JAG.)
